2. Guitar Hero is not really that subjective... I'm sure 99% of people would rather have fully compatible instruments, and better and more full DLC offerings (Wii = no Jimi Hendrix is one example), and P.O.D., than have Mii Freestyle...

Well, I have 2 different GH games of Wii and they are compatible with GHWT.  The actual guitar is better on Wii in GH 3, GH A, and GHWT.  I don't know, maybe that is why all 3 GH games on Wii sell better on Wii than any other system.  It will be no shock when GH5 sells better on Wii than any other system.  The game is a better experince and less expensive to get into to boot.  Mii Freestyle just goes beyond anything Xbox 360 is capable of doing.  About DLC, you are right.  That is a very subjective part.  On 1 hand, there are a few songs that are not going to be for pay DLC content on Wii but with the 100s and likely eventual 1000s of free DLC songs for the game, does a handful of pay DLC really matter?  No according to me and millions of others out there.

 


The Free (User-generated) DLC = No vocals...

Also, Guitar Hero is a VERY casual game... No wonder it sells best on Wii...

EDIT: I also have GH:3 and GH:Aero for Wii. the codes are in my sig. The only way the Wii's Guitars are really "better", is that they have rumble and individualized "screw-up sounds" via the Wii remote... and you don't even get a $10 discount on Aero & WT.

The rock band instruments are not compatible (big feature), and although I agree, and like the GH instruments better, it is just an extremely important option...

OK, added Assassin's Creed and The Orange Box...

I'll have to check with Darklich, so I'm not making any promises but if you want a different color, PM me about it (It can't be red)

Also, for all of you who can't seem to read a KEY, and are saying "Graphics vs. Controls" and such:



PP = Personal Preference

* = Are controls more important to you, or are graphics?

$$$ = Price due to age is a major deciding factor. It may make you decide differently than the verdict. Price will go down eventually, and then the original ruling will definitely apply.

Game Title - Assassin's Creed

Avail System - PS3, 360

PS3 - Drops in frame rate and visible texture pop-in more prevalent

360 - Achievements, rumble

Verdict - 1. 360 2. PS3

 

OK,I'll change mine, but I can't alternate shades... too much work... :P

just a small correction. Assassin's Creed for PS3 does have rumble (I have the game), so it can't be a benefit for the X360 version.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

^ OK thanks for the input!!

LCEC, remove rumble as a benefit from 360 on Assassin's Creed, everything else is good.

Uh, anyone on Army of Two, Rock Band 2, Skate, Dead Space, or Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (a real toughie)?

Game Title - Star Wars The Force Unleashed

Avail System - PS3, 360, Wii

Wii - $49.99, Same Story Arc but different levels then PS360, Duel Mode, most interesting and enjoyable control scheme but novelty wears off quickly, grainy and pixilated, slowdown, camera issues, lightsaber noises that come out of the Wii remote

PS3 - Single-player only, no Trophy support, install required but loading isn't any faster than 360

360 - Single-player only, falls victim to screen tearing and frame rate dips a bit more frequently than the PS3, sharper textures, reflective surfaces (walls, floors, etc.) are much more detailed in the 360 version.

Verdict - 1. PS360 1. Wii

Edit: I decided to change the verdict. Since the Wii version is really a different game than the PS360, it should not be compared IMO.
